## Description

Delia Owens is a celebrated author and the co-author of three internationally bestselling nonfiction books, including "Cry of the Kalahari," which chronicles her experiences as a wildlife scientist in Africa. Delia's deep affinity for nature, nurtured from childhood in Georgia, profoundly influences her writing. Her debut novel, "Where the Crawdads Sing," blends her love of the natural world with a gripping narrative centered around a young woman's struggle for belonging amidst isolation.

Her extensive fieldwork in places like Botswana and Zambia highlights her commitment to conservation and community support, earning her numerous awards, including the John Burroughs Award for Nature Writing.
